To Edit a Virtual Server

  1. In the navigation tree, expand the Configuration node.
  2. Under the Configuration node, select the Virtual Servers node.
  3. On the Virtual Servers page, click the name of the virtual server to be edited.

    The Edit Virtual Server page opens.

  4. The Id field cannot be edited.
  5. On the Edit Virtual Server page, in the Hosts field, type the host names or IP addresses for the machine on which the server is running.

    Use either actual or virtual host names that are registered with the DNS server for your network (and, on a UNIX system, in your /etc/hosts file).

  6. Select a State option for the virtual server.

    The virtual server is active by default.

  7. In the HTTP Listeners field, specify one or more HTTP listeners, or leave the field blank.

    This field is populated automatically when you create an HTTP listener and associate it with this server.

  8. (Optional) From the Default Web Module drop-down list, select the module that is to respond to all requests that cannot be mapped to other web modules deployed to the virtual server.

    If a default web module is not specified, the web module that has an empty context root is used. If there is no web module with an empty context root, a system default web module is created and used.

  9. (Optional) In the Log File field, type the path name of the file where logging messages from this virtual server will appear.

    By default, logging messages will be sent to the default server log, domain-dir/logs/server.log.

  10. (Optional) In the Docroot field, type the absolute path to the root document directory for the server.

    By default, domain-dir/docroot will be used.

  11. Select the SSO Enabled checkbox to enable single sign-on for this virtual server.

    This option is disabled by default. If single sign-on is disabled, users must authenticate separately to every application on the virtual server.

    Single sign-on across applications on the Enterprise Server is supported by servlets and JSP files. This feature allows multiple applications that require the same user sign-on information to share this information, rather than have the user sign on separately for each application.

  12. Select an Access Logging option to enable or disable access logging.

    Alternatively, you can specify if access logging is inherited from the HTTP Service. By default, it is inherited from the HTTP Service.

  13. In the Directory field, type the absolute directory path to the server access logs.

    The default value is domain-dir/logs/access.

  14. In the Buffer Size field, type the buffer size, in bytes.

    A value less than or equal to zero will disable buffering. If the field is left blank, the access log buffer size will be inherited from the HTTP Service.

  15. In the Write Interval field, type the interval, in seconds, between updating the access logs.

    A value less than or equal to zero will disable buffering. If the field is left blank, the write interval will be inherited from the HTTP Service.

  16. (Optional) In the Additional Properties section, specify additional properties for the virtual server.

    For information on available properties, see Properties Specific to Virtual Servers.

  17. Click Save.
